Jack Butland, born on 10 March 1993 (age 33), is an English goalkeeper currently with Rangers. An imposing 6ft 5in (1.96m), he built his career on early senior exposure rather than waiting politely in the background.
The formative spell came at Cheltenham Town in 2011-12, where he made 24 league appearances. For a young goalkeeper, that sort of loan is often more useful than another year of training-ground praise, and it gave him a proper run of football at a stage when he needed games.
Butland later collected a League Cup winners’ medal elsewhere in his career before becoming a regular first-team figure at Rangers. His current market value is around £1.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
In 2025-26, he remains heavily involved for Rangers, with 38 league appearances, one Scottish Cup appearance, six Champions League qualifying appearances and eight in the Europa League – 53 appearances in all competitions. That is not a squad goalkeeper’s workload.
His career has been shaped by early loan football, a long spell through the English game, and a prominent role at Ibrox. He remains a regular goalkeeper for Rangers rather than a name drifting towards the margins.
